Narcan Training with Cambridge Public Health Department

In conjunction with the special exhibition "Objects of Addiction: Opium, Empire, and the Chinese Art Trade," and with an abundance of care for the community, Harvard Art Museums are hosting a one-hour on-site Narcan training, facilitated by Cambridge Public Health Department, on Tuesday, Oct. 17. The department staff will also distribute the medicine for attendees to take home. Naloxone (also known as Narcan) is a nasal spray that can rapidly reverse an opioid overdose by blocking opioids from attaching to receptors in the brain. Admission is free, but space is limited and registration is required. Registration opens online at 10am on Saturday, Oct. 7.
